Porirua has a new police station.
The old building had given more than 50 years service but was well past its best.
Kāpiti Mana Area Commander, Inspector Tracey Thompson said it was not a good building to work in.

The old building had given more than 50 years service but was well past its best.
Kāpiti Mana Area Commander, Inspector Tracey Thompson said it was not a good building to work in.
“Our pots [were] on the floor because there were holes in the roof. It didn’t smell that nice at times, [it was] cold in the winter, hot in the summer."
Among the first people to visit the facility were representatives of Ngāti Toa Rangatira who blessed the new facility last Thursday.
The iwi also gifted the names of seven rooms, including Whakatau Mai (reception), Te Wāhi Hapori (community room), Taua Nei Kōrero (interview rooms), Kai Tāhi (cafeteria), Te Wāhi Whakataa (wellness room) and the executive meeting room, Kāpiti ki Pōneke.
Signs in the new police facility were bilingual, reflecting the close relationship police had with local Māori.

"I am a special dude who has had an unusual start to my rehoming journey. I am completely deaf but that doesn't stop me having a great time! I am a fun, loveable, boy who has stolen the hearts of everyone at the centre. I am looking for an experienced owner, who has a suitable property for me to thrive in. I'm always up for a walk or a game to play, and I love to find things to do and keep active. I am looking for a home with teenagers or adults, and a home without cats or small animals. I am happy to play with other active dogs, and love to be social with both people and dogs. If you are interested in me and my goofy personality - chat to the canine team."
